In this paper, a model to estimate the weights of mutually dependent criteria, based on cause-effect assessments of a group of professionals, is developed for problem of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM). Here, both DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory) and TOPSIS (Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution) models are combined and extended to handle fuzzy evaluations where the first is used to set the weights of the interdependent criteria and the second for drawing a decision from a group of professionals who use linguistic ratings in their evaluation. The presented model is characterized by the capability to estimate the criteria weights when the criteria are interrelated. The strict determination of the criteria weights prior to the assessment process is eliminated as they are computed by the DEMATEL part. A classical case-study of optimal sore throat treatment in primary care unit is used to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed model.
